So you get that ‘wow, doesn’t this look great!’ feeling without any of the eco-guilt. And it doesn’t just stop there you see, “increasing the life of clothing by a further 9 months would reduce carbon, waste and water footprints by 30%.” So you have the added feel good factor knowing these clothes have been rescued from landfill. According to Love Your Clothes, in the UK alone, we send 300,000 tonnes of used clothing to landfill each year. We often treat the kids to a meal out at Creperie Sel Et Sucre so it’ll soon have chocolate finger prints down it!ĭaisy – Pink top, Loopster, £4 / Shorts, hand-me-downs/ Hat*, Little Hotdog Watson, £25 / Sunglasses, Izipizzi x Bonpoint, £35 / Sandals, Iris, The Feel Good Factorīuying preloved children’s clothes is one of the most sustainable ways to shop. So I’ve gone for this sleeveless Salt Rock Top, from Loopster (£4) and a pair of preloved shorts (cousin hand-me-downs.) She’s also dress obsessed at the moment, so I’ve added in this beautiful preloved Monsoon gown, also from Loopster (£15). As she’ll be cycling daily to La Boulangerie and of course La Plage. So I’ve been perusing their latest collection to find some extra pieces for the kids.ĭaisy loves to cycle, therefore I’ve been on the hunt for some bike friendly clothing. Where you can pick up nearly new, great quality clothes at a fraction of their retail price. Now, Loopster is an amazing second-hand online clothing boutique. We’re off to the South of France in a few weeks, so I’ve been trying to get the children’s holiday wardrobes sorted. Quality Preloved Children’s Clothes At Great Prices But, there are plenty of high quality, preloved children’s clothes out there in need of a good home. The truth is, when we go somewhere hot, we often need to buy a few extra garments: an extra swimsuit, dress, sun hat or kaftan for throwing on at the beach. Which coming from someone who writes about sustainable fashion, may surprise you! You see, even I need to be reminded that there are plenty of preloved children’s clothes out there. And naturally this extends to the kids’ wardrobes too. I am completely guilty of associating a holiday with the need for an entire new wardrobe.
